The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a safe routing tool that uses multi-source data and associated data fusion to provide risk scoring based on real-time traffic, weather, and roadway conditions. With traffic crashes claiming 42,939 lives in the U.S. in 2021, integrating safer route analyses into navigation tools can revolutionize the mapping industry and enhance road safety. This technology not only serves as a tool for individual users seeking safer routes. Transportation authorities can leverage the technology and data for more effective road safety initiatives. Additionally, the adoption of this tool can incentivize safer driving behaviors, potentially leading to reduced insurance premiums, benefiting both users and insurance companies. Beyond its immediate impact, the project opens avenues for collaboration and knowledge-sharing among academic and research institutions.This I-Corps project is based on the development of a roadway risk scoring system for optimal route mapping. The technology integrates a safe system approach into route selection. The tool combines data from various historical and real-time sources related to road conditions, traffic, crashes, and weather. The solution employs a robust multi-source data fusion strategy to determine safety risks. In addition, the system employs advanced computer vision and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to generate real-time safety probability scores for different routes. This real-time evaluation marks a significant advancement in ensuring user safety, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of the safety information provided to users. This information empowers users to make informed, data-driven decisions about their routes and travel plans and ensures that the tool offers a good understanding of potential hazards on various routes.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

I-Corps项目更广泛的影响/商业潜力是开发一种安全的路由工具，该工具使用多源数据和相关数据融合，根据实时交通、天气和道路状况提供风险评分。2021年，美国的交通事故造成42939人死亡，将更安全的路线分析整合到导航工具中可以彻底改变地图行业并提高道路安全。这项技术不仅可以作为寻求更安全路线的个人用户的工具。交通管理部门可以利用该技术和数据制定更有效的道路安全举措。此外，采用该工具可以激励更安全的驾驶行为，可能会降低保险费，从而使用户和保险公司都受益。除了产生直接影响外，该项目还为学术和研究机构之间的合作和知识共享开辟了途径。这个I-Corps项目的基础是开发一个道路风险评分系统，以实现最优路线映射。该技术将安全系统方法集成到路线选择中。该工具结合了与道路状况、交通、碰撞和天气有关的各种历史和实时来源的数据。该解决方案采用健壮的多源数据融合策略来确定安全风险。此外，该系统采用先进的计算机视觉和人工智能（AI）算法，为不同路线生成实时安全概率评分。这种实时评估标志着在确保用户安全方面取得了重大进展，显著提高了向用户提供的安全信息的准确性和可靠性。这些信息使用户能够对其路线和旅行计划做出明智的、数据驱动的决策，并确保该工具能够很好地了解各种路线上的潜在危险。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
